Loading the Extension

Chrome

  1. Navigate to chrome://extensions
  2. Enable "Developer mode"
  3. Click "Load unpacked"
  4. Select extension/chrome directory

Firefox

  1. Navigate to about:debugging
  2. Click "This Firefox"
  3. Click "Load Temporary Add-on"
  4. Select extension/firefox/manifest.json

Note

  • Kutt.it API permits 50 URLs shortening per day using the API Key
  • Enable Custom Host option to use with self-hosted kutt
    • Save the self hosted domain in the input (eg: https://mykutt.it)
    • Note: the api endpoint is automatically appended during the api call
  • Delay at times while shortening might be the issue with Kutt.it API and not with the extension's
